1. RTI and Behavior Process Improvement Group Facilitators: Bill Trant, Susan Cole, & Leigh Gates

2. Agenda  Welcome, Introductions & Agenda Review  Description of the Current Process  Presentation of the Data  What Works? Small Group Discussion & Whole Group Share  What Needs to Work Better? Small Group Discussion & Whole Group Share  Consolidate and Prioritize  Next Steps

3. RTI Process for Behavior Select the behavior Define the behavior Pinpoint priority replacement behavior Collect Data Obtain baseline and set a goal Intervene and progress monitor Evaluate effectiveness of intervention through data collection

4. Three Tiered Model of Behavioral Supports Tier III Intensive, Individualized Interventions Tier II First Line Interventions Tier I Preventative Classroom Management

5. Goal Setting 75%  Non-compliance, motor disruption, work completion, verbal disruption 100%  NHCS board policy for aggressive behaviors (verbal and physical), bullying, threatening, cursing.

6. Progress Monitoring 100% goal  Daily 75% goal  5x in 2 weeks or daily? Utilize same decision making strategies as used for academic concerns. Remember:  (-)Behavior + (+)Academics = Intervention  (-)Behavior + (-) Academics = Possible Entitlement

7. NHCS Behavior Criteria 1) Performance well below peers as evidenced by performance below goals as set below:  100%: Harmful to self or others (i.e. Assault & Battery) OR SIGNIFICANT disruption of learning environment (i.e. Cursing & Tantrums)  75%: Noncompliance, lack of work completion, time off task

8. NHCS Behavior Criteria 2) Rate of growth below peers  Trend line will not intersect with aim line in 18 weeks or less. 3) Intensity and nature of instruction resemble specially designed instruction. ***ALL 3 CRITERIA MUST BE MET!

9. Life after the Waiver: Behavior Introduction of Tier IV Overlay of RTI Process and State Requirements Primary Categories Impacted:  Other Health Impaired (OHI)  Serious Emotional Disability (SED)  Intellectually Disabled-Mild (ID-MI)

10. Tier IV Analyze Tier III and determine if RTI criteria have been met Obtain parental consent for evaluation Conduct additional required screenings and evaluations by category

11. Categorical Requirements OHI  Social and Developmental History  Medical Evaluation  Documentation of limited vitality or limited alertness, including heightened alertness to environmental stimuli that results in limited alertness with respect to the educational environment (RTI results)

12. Categorical Requirements Serious Emotional Disability  Social and Developmental History  Communication Evaluation  Behavior/Emotional Evaluation  Adaptive Behavior Evaluation  Psychological Evaluation  Documentation of Impairment

20. THE STATE-LEVEL PERSPECTIVE The Continuous Improvement Performance Plan Indicator 4b Indicators 9 and 10

21. Indicator 4b Significant Discrepancy of > 10 Day Suspensions by Race/Ethnicity Due to 2009-2010 Data  1,073 total students suspended  78 (7.3%) students with IEPs  More than 2 times discrepant in the number of suspensions by race/ethnicity (African American)

22. Indicator 9 & 10 Disproportionate Representation by Race/Ethnicity in Disability Categories That is a Result of Inappropriate Identification 2010-2011 Data  2 categories: ID-MI (82/133) and SED (63/105).  ID-MI risk ratio: 6.2% NHCS > 5.36% State  SED risk ratio: 6% NHCS > 5% State  Disproportionate in the identification of African American students in these two categories
